Zoology of Australia

The fauna of Australia is, taking the animal kingdom as a whole, extremely rich and varied, it is also more distinctively local in its general character than that of any other large area of the earth's surface. But, though the strictly Australian character exists throughout, the Fauna varies considerably in different parts of the country, the variations being evidently caused in some instances by differences in soil and climate, and in others by contiguity to other zoological regions

<i>Rehabilitation doxa</i> and practitioner judgment. An analysis of symbolic violence on health care provision in the Scottish prison system

This paper presents an analysis of the symbolic conditions which govern health care provision in the Scottish prison system. The paper considers the wider context of Scottish prisons, where health care provision follows a similar structure both in juvenile and adult prisons. Our intention is to provoke a debate about the doxa (Bourdieu, 1977), which underlies decision making in respect of health care in prison, in a political environment where pragmatism, allied to the ‘pathologisation’ of social policies, health and criminal justice has been a hegemonic force.<br/
